what I have learned

3. I am a good person who did not deserve this no matter how rough our relationship was before the A

4. My life was not as good as I thought it was but it will be better moving forward. I have removed my blinders and see things more clearly now

5. Taking time for myself is not selfish

6. I dont know how I would have gotten through this if I hadn't found this website. Everyone on here has been so supportive and open with their experiences and offering suggestions for coping and I greatly appreciate all of you

7. I am a survivor!

I know there is a lot of work to still to be done but this is where I am at today!

Yay you aero1122....to have this knowledge after 4 months is such a great start to R. Are you getting help and support from your WS?

Yeah!

That should be our mantra on here. I know I need to do those things.

I am getting support from my WH. We are working on us and moving forward with counseling and transparency.

I read something similar when I first found SI and
I thought how will I ever be there but I am well on my way to healing.

I know I am only 4 months out and still have bad days and triggers but I am getting better and know I will be ok as long as I continue on this path.

I learned time really does heal all wounds, I thought I'd never get my life back on track. I'm agree with your list as well. It took some time mine longer than yours but it did improve.

You have no idea how much hope this gives me. Thanks for your post. I hope I will be able to say the same someday.
